Attentive is a new take on Ruby presentation software. It provides lots of smart things already set up for you:
* A simple slide transition system written from scratch with no jQuery (oh snap!)
* Sass, Compass, and CoffeeScript all plugged into Sprockets and ready to generate your presentation's CSS and JavaScripts.
* Pygments for syntax highlighting.
* Simple slide syntax, really really similar to how Showoff does it.
Here's what you can do:
`attentive create <presenation name>`
Create a new presentation.
`attentive`
Run the presentation that's in the current directory on port 9393.
`attentive start -p <port>`
Run the current presentation on another port.
`attentive static`
Generate a static copy of the presentation and dependent files into `_site`.
`attentive gh-pages`
Generate a static copy, commit it to the `gh-pages` branch of your site.
`gh-pages` gets created if it doesn't exist.
Edit `presentation.rb` and start adding `.slides` files in `presentation/`. The files are processed in sort order.
While the presentation is running:
* Click a slide, use the spacebar, or the right arrow to advance
* Use the left arrow to go back
* Hit [ Shift ]-T to toggle a timer on and off, then lowercase t to turn it on and off
* Hit \ to reset the timer
